Nice improvement, but I think you need to improve the commit message a bit. Changing the ioremap mode from noncache to write combine should actually not improve the read performance (reads are uncached in both modes). I think this patch makes a difference because VRAM is usually marked write combined and so ioremap needs to change that for no good reason and that in turn takes quite some time. I think you should write something like "Avoid changing the mapping mode of VRAM while reading the vbios from it, this reduce the time from....". > > Signed-off-by: Xiangliang Yu <[email protected]> > Signed-off-by: Xiangliang.Yu <[email protected]> You added the signed-off-by line twice, please fix this. With that fixed and the commit message improved a bit the patch is Reviewed-by: Christian König <[email protected]>.
